1. Robert Lewandowski

On a historic evening for the Polish striker, Lewandowski joined the elite company of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo by surpassing 100 Champions League goals. His brace was another lesson in precision and composure, with a penalty to open the scoring and a late strike to cap Barcelona’s dominant display.

Lewandowski’s ability to deliver in key moments remains unparalleled as he enters his late 30s. Beyond his goalscoring prowess, Lewy’s movement off the ball created space for his teammates, constantly stretching Brest’s defense. His leadership and experience on nights like this continue to be invaluable, proving that even in the twilight of his career, Lewandowski is still among the elite.
